Cheap eats at Efteling
It's no surprise that a day out can be pretty expensive these days. Of course, how expensive you let it get is up to you. Good preparation is half the battle, and in this case it can save you a considerable amount without making your day at Efteling any less magical. In this blog, we take you through a number of budget-friendly places to eat at Efteling.
Max & Moritz Plein
We're off to a great start! Bäckerei Krumel is a food outlet that's ideal for satisfying your hunger at breakfast, lunch or dinner. Have breakfast with a pretzel and a coffee, or lunch with a freshly filled roll and a juice. With Aquanura just a stone's throw away, it's also the perfect spot to round off your day at Efteling.
Opposite Bäckerei Krumel you'll find Frau Boltes Küche. Here, delicious chicken pieces are fried and served in a real Bengelbuit, together with a portion of onion rings. If you're budgeting smartly, you can order one Bengelbuit and share it with your group. Add a drink and your hunger is sorted for a while.
Toko Pagode and De Oase
Fancy something different? Then Toko Pagode is the place for you! There's a wealth of choice from Asian cuisine. Have your tub filled and heated up, and Bob's your uncle. And all for a bargain price! Enjoy your meal!
If Asian food isn't your thing, you can also head to the Oase. On the Fata Morgana Plein you can grab a Turkish pizza or doner kebab, fully in keeping with the theme, to satisfy your hunger. Load it up with vegetables for your vitamins and you're ready for a day full of wonder, or enjoy it in the car on the way home.
’t Gebraad & In Den Gelaarsde Kat
’t Gebraad & In Den Gelaarsde Kat are next to Het Witte Paard and serve Dutch classics such as a meatball roll or a smoked sausage roll. Besides these classics, at In Den Gelaarsde Kat you can also get various filled rolls and toasties.
Fancy a snack as well? Then stop by the Smulpaap. Here you can get something deliciously greasy for just a few euros.
Tip: Have a light lunch to leave more room for snacks.
Station de Oost
Attention, hurried and relaxed travellers alike! Time for a well-deserved break. Station de Oost is also a highlight when it comes to snacking at Efteling. From the snack wall and fresh chips to a doner kebab or a freshly filled roll.
You can come here for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There's all sorts on sale and you can go as wild as you like.
’t Poffertje
In the mood for a Dutch snack? The cheaper little sibling of Polles Keuken is ’t Poffertje. This old-fashioned restaurant takes you back in time to enjoy delicious poffertjes.
Tip: In a group? Try the mixed flavour tower with every kind of poffertjes. Great for sharing and it saves you money!
